Goal 1:

Goal 2:

All walkers and bike riders are encouraged to use the sidewalks and not the streets in the neighborhood since traffic is usually heavy just before and after school. Please help us keep your children safe.
 

ParentCONNECT ParentCONNECT is a web-based program that is being phased in this year by GISD to help parents keep track of their child's academic progress on a daily basis.  Cooper Elementary has been selected to be online December 6, 2007, with other schools being phased in by the end of the 2007-08 school year. With a ParentCONNECT account and Internet access, a parent will be able to easily monitor their scholar's Progress Report Grades, Report Card Grades, Attendance Record, Residence and Mailing Addresses, and Emergency Contact Information.  Other features will be added during the 2008-09 school year.  The process for parents to receive access to their child's information is to click on the ParentCONNECT link at the bottom of this article, or click on the link in the left column of this page. Click on the Register button on the ParentCONNECT web page. Complete the online registration form, and then for security reasons, come by the Cooper office and complete the verification form with photo identification.  Office personnel will verify a parent's registration and issue a UserID and password for accessing their scholar's information.  The ParentCONNECT web site contains more information and a frequently asked questions link.  Parents may  contact us at parentconnect@georgetownisd.org if assistance is needed or if questions remain.  Parents that have children at other GISD campuses will be notified as those campuses come online with ParentCONNECT and will be able to visit those schools to add other children to their  ParentCONNECT account. The District's ParentCONNECT web site is available 24 hours a day on the Internet.  Most of the data in ParentCONNECT is current as of the previous school day.   Please click here, or on the ParentCONNECT link in the left column to initiate the registration process.   VOLUNTEER BACKGROUND CHECKS Any individual who plans to assist in supervising children other than their own during a school sponsored event, must complete and pass a volunteer background check in advance. This is an annual process that is completed by the individual online.  Please go to the Cooper website homepage and click on "Volunteer Background Check" in the left border.  Or go to the GISD website homepage and click on "Volunteer Form" in the center of the bottom of the page.  Or you may click on the following link which should take you directly to the forms.. http://www.georgetownisd.org/career/volunteers.htm  Approximately 24 to 48 hours after completing and submitting the form, Mrs. Allman receives notification of the results.  Please contact her as she maintains an updated list of approved volunteers. COOPER "SCHOLARS" The children that attend Cooper Elementary are being taught scholarly values and behaviors.  These values and behaviors are embedded into every aspect of the school day.  The Cooper Scholars are encouraged to  incorporate these values and behaviors into their daily life and to elevate their effort and performance here at school, at home, and in the community.
